  • In this video I test out Jamaican Bamboo charcoal. The product is from Jamaican Jeem. A cook three steaks on an Old Smokey 14” table top grill with this charcoal. At the end of the video I show interview Jamaican Jeem. That interview was originally part of this longer video recorded at the 10th annual Old Smokey Throwdown in Galveston, TX on July 15,2023. • Old Smokey Throwdown X

    Not sure if it's just because I was raised with my dad, uncles, and grandfathers using Kingsford classic, but I really like the flavor it gives to chicken, pork, burgers, and steak. I admire your dedication to try as many brands/species that you've been able. And I also admire efforts toward sustainability. I've only ever used Royal Oak lump and quickly went back to KBB.😊

    Always looking for different charcoals. As to the cook itself, well, getting used to a new fuel, or grill, or device, always takes time. If the charcoal is reasonably priced, if it burns hot and works well, what the heck! Thanks Big L!

    I had to order charcoal for steel beach picnics while on the ship in the Mid East, South East Asia, and Africa. Most are just lump coal. Here in the Philippines they have the same kind of bamboo charcoal, as well as coconut shell charcoal (lump charcoal too). Glad to see you happy with it! Great interview Big Lew! God Bless!

    Very interesting charcoal! I would like to give it a try. I would think it would be very mild on flavor.

    Nice review, Big Lew! The bag actually says starts faster, burns hotter😁 I'd definitely eat those steaks! I like mine a little more pink, but they weren't too over cooked for me!!!😋😋😋

    Oh man! Lew I feel bad. Those were some really nice steaks that got messed up. I've done it before myself and its a sick feeling, because they are expensive! Better luck next time brother! I definitely want to try this charcoal. I have been using jealous Devil because it gets real hot, but then you end up with a GIANT piece or 2 or 5 in the bag that are way too big for anything except like an offset. This bamboo looks like it gets real hot, and really since its bamboo, there's no way they're putting a damn tree trunk in the bag.

      I like JD charcoal too. This bamboo stuff seems to have similar characteristics as far burning, except that it is extremely light weight. It ignites much easier thanJD JD is some heavy dense stuff.

    Hey Big guy. Have you ever done a review of the Old Smokey electric smoker? I have one and love it.

      Funny you should ask, I’ve been working on that video for over week. A rather long thorough review will be out on thus channel by the weekend. I got to try some fish in it tonight. Then I’ll put the review together.

    A little past where I like a steak, but I bet they were still good! Rootboy Approved! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

      Yea operator error. The video isn’t about the steak though, it’s about this high heat charcoal. So the mistake just demonstrated it. Thanks Sal.
